The slope of the line is 1/4
Answer:
B. The two lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, put both lines into the same format. In this example, we're going to use y=mx+b format.
x - 4y = -9
-4y = -x + -9
y = (-x + -9) / -4
y = (x+9)/-4
y = (-1/4)x + (-9/4)
y = 3x - 7
If two lines are parallel, they have the same slope. (ie 4 and 4)
If two lines are perpendicular, one line's slope is the negative reciprocal of the other. (ie 4 and -1/4)
Neither is true here.
Using the features, a piece-wise function is defined, and the graph is sketched at the end of this answer.
A piece-wise function is a function that has <u>multiple definitions</u>, depending on the value of the input.
He starts at 0 feet, and reaches a maximum elevation of 800 feet in 30 minutes, with a steady(linear) increase thus, for the first 30 minutes, the definition is:

For the next 5 minutes, he stops to rest, at the maximum elevation of 800 feet, thus, the definition is:

For the final 20 minutes, he descends 800 meters, at a linear rate, thus:

Using these definitions, the graph is sketched at the end of this answer.

-9.5 because 1/2 simplifies to .5 and 9 is the whole number
Answer=7:13
Kenny's Weight*6/7=Melvin's Weight
So, for example, if Melvin's weigh was 7...
Kenny's Weight*6/7=7
divide both sides by 6/7
Kenny Weight=6
So we can say that Melvin's weight to Kenny's weight is 7:6
The boys total weights would be...
7+6=13
So Melvin's weight over the total weight of the two boys is:
7:13
